Hudson County was the place to be on New Year's Eve -- if you were buying Jersey Cash 5 tickets.

Two tickets split the $699,138 jackpot.

One was sold at the A&D Family Deli, 1117 Kennedy Blvd., Bayonne. And the other was sold at Fine Fare grocery store, 3000 Kennedy Blvd., Jersey City.

Each ticket is worth $349,569.

"For selling these tickets, each of these businesses will receive a bonus check for $750,'' Steven Palmieri, acting executive director of the New Jersey Lottery, said. "Overnight, these retailers have become two more 'lucky locations' for some very fortunate winners.''

Fine Fare has a history of good luck. Two years ago, The Jersey Journal snapped photos there when they had another big winner.
